The body on it is all rock solid and arrow straight down the sides. We can see the panel fit is all stunning as well along with the doors, hood, and trunk all having a great fit with the gaps being even and symmetrical. All the glass is like new, and you'll notice all new weather stripping and seals. The body is showcased by the Tropical Turquoise paint that was redone in base coat clear coat. Countless hours were spent blocking this car and then the same meticulous approach was taken with wet sanding, buffing, and polishing it to the mirror finish you see today. It's accented by all new chrome and stainless. All the side stainless flows beautifully from front to rear and both bumpers have an excellent fit. It also has the correct gold emblems and grill along with the dual antennas our back. A new top was installed at the time of the restoration, and it is a power top that goes up and down with ease. Also, it has the new white boot for when the top is down. To finish off the stance it's sitting on the stock style steel wheels that are painted body color and finished out with new hub caps and Wide White Tires.
Next, we will look at the interior of this Convertible. On the inside it was all redone new as well. It's done in the two-tone Ivory and Blue color combo that provides a beautiful compliment to the exterior. It has the front and rear bench seat with all the trim being beautiful. New Door panels were installed as well, and it comes with the Power Windows. Looking at the dahs we can see that all the metal is amazing, and the paint has a beautiful finish. All the trim is new and has a great fit. The gauges are all working as they should and are equally impressive. The rest of the interior trim was installed new as well and it has had new visors installed. All new carpet and seal plates were installed as well. Inside the trunk is all beautiful, the metal is rock solid and it's painted out to match the exterior while being dressed with a trunk mat.
Finally, we will get to the heartbeat of this Chevrolet. Under the hood it's powered by a 350 V8 engine. This 350 is custom set up with the front oiler intake and the valve covers to look like a 283. The engine details is stunning on this '57 down to the air cleaner and factory style hoses. We can also see the inner fenders are beautiful along with the firewall that has been detailed out with the factory style markings it would have had when new. Now this Bel Air comes upgraded with Power Steering and Power Brakes with disc up front and drums out back with all new wheel cylinders and shoes. When we look under this Chevrolet you are sure to be amazed. The eye to detail for this restoration is stunning. The floor pans have all been polished out just like the rest of the exterior. We can see the frame has been done in black and has the factory style markings on it. All new body bushings and bushings through the front end were installed. Along with new springs front and rear and new shocks. For exhaust it has manifolds with all new pipes and mufflers. The 350 V8 engine runs the through the 700R4 Overdrive Transmission and the stock style rear end. This is a stunning rotisserie restoration that is sure to turn heads everywhere you go.
